It is clear that some areas will suffer though, and the creation of different types of work will be essential. One day it&#39;ll all be in the history books...Manuel Antãohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17336285623782521966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32201800.post-7348547436487065452017-07-24T22:55:43.391+01:002017-07-24T22:55:43.391+01:00I must say that Im begining to agree with a vision...I must say that Im begining to agree with a vision of complementary humans to excendentary robots. Everywhere you go you see machinery taking human jobs, not because they are cheaper but because they can&#39;t find the people to work doing that jobs...<br />Check agricultural crops nowadays. Even grape crops are machines I heard in reguengos de monsaraz where i was last weekend.<br />The emigration rate was so high in the last 5 years that the crops had to be done by machines!<br /><br />Maybe we just have to have only naval-gazing jobs afterall...!!!Luís Filipe Francohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13562547322761212609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32201800.post-59468884411344498902017-07-22T17:58:48.920+01:002017-07-22T17:58:48.920+01:00Most of our beloved jobs and so-called careers wer...Most of our beloved jobs and so-called careers were redundant in the first place. AI not only shines a light on our own futility, but will also allow us to bask in what we truly relish as a species: self-absorbed naval gazing. Which is ok, because technology will soon be able to provide the food, clothing, and shelter for which we worry and work so hard for, but at minimal or almost free cost. The paradigm shift swings upon us--bring on Universal Basic Income! Certainly an exciting time for humanity.<br /><br />What&#39;s the point of the rat race if robots are doing all the work anyway? Universal income, humane population management, aggressive push to colonize the rest of the solar system and beyond...and of course the scrapping of the whole &quot;life=work=money&quot; notion that the wealthy few use to enslave the rest of us billions.Manuel Antãohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17336285623782521966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32201800.post-75365078572246236712017-07-22T17:32:25.246+01:002017-07-22T17:32:25.246+01:00My only contact with &quot;Go&quot; is through the...My only contact with &quot;Go&quot; is through the manga &quot;Hikaru no go&quot; that I read back in &#39;08. I tried to play a couple of games on some freeware and lost so badly that I never tried again. It is such a different mindset, as you noted, that I just can&#39;t grasp the necessary strategy.<br /><br />&quot;so we humans should perhaps hang our heads in shame at being so incompetent at reasoning that an unreasoning machine can better us at games we thought to be intellectual challenges requiring sophisticated strategy and tactics&quot;<br /><br />Well, I&#39;d like to ask that ai system to ride a bike. Or color a picture within the lines. It can&#39;t. It wasn&#39;t designed to. Humans haven&#39;t been designed to all excel at the same thing. But we can do about eleventy billion DIFFERENT things. Those machines are precision instruments meant to do one thing extremely well. Now, I&#39;ll be worried when cyborgs can start having physical presence in titanium shells. Or when cars, planes, etc start thinking for themselves.<br /><br />However, I always think they&#39;ll fail eventually. Because humans are flawed, their work is flawed and their assumptions and their biases, etc are all flawed. Whatever they do will be flawed as well. Now, that doesn&#39;t mean something won&#39;t destroy us all WITH its flaws, lol...Book Stoogehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16059110063509922530noreply@blogger.com
